While Traveling Approximately 1,000 Kilometers From the State of Israel, the Commander of the Iranian Quds Force’s Weapons Transfer Unit Was Eliminated

Overnight, IAF fighter jets, under precise guidance from the Intelligence Directorate, struck and eliminated Behnam Shahriyari, commander of the Quds Force’s Weapons Transfer Unit (Unit 190) in the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps.

Shahriyari was eliminated in his vehicle more than 1,000 kilometers from the State of Israel while traveling in western Iran.

 As part of his duties, Shahriyari was responsible for all weapons transfers from the Iranian regime to its proxies across the Middle East and worked for years to arm various terrorist organizations in order to directly advance the Iranian regime’s plan to destroy the State of Israel.

Shahriyari worked directly with the Hezbollah and Hamas terrorist organizations, alongside the Houthi terrorist regime and other organizations, supplying numerous missiles and rockets, many of which were fired at Israel during the war.

 In addition to leading weapons transfers, Shahriyari commanded the transfer of hundreds of millions of dollars annually to various terrorist organizations through his unique connections in Turkey and Lebanon, utilizing a network of shell companies, money changers, and couriers. Furthermore, he led the extensive effort to finance and arm these terrorist organizations—an effort that has resulted in the deaths and injuries of many Israeli civilians and soldiers.

 His elimination represents a severe blow to the ability of the terrorist organizations surrounding the State of Israel to regroup and strengthen after being heavily damaged by the IDF during the war.
